"Everything is just ridiculously priced,” Susie Nott said. She frequently shops on Amazon for groceries and other items, but recently she claims the prices haven’t been the same.

For example, she was shopping for Cheerios and saw most of the boxes were sold out.

"Everything said unavailable, not available, out of stock, and then I saw a two-box set and looked at it and it was $70.14 dollars for the two boxes,” Nott said.

She’s not alone.

Multiple people have been taking to social media, claiming they’ve seen prices skyrocket.
